Does this prevent you from clenching your fingers into your palm? This seems to be my main problem.

Yes. Your palm lies on a pad inside the support and keeps the fingers straight out to the first finger joint.
37916
yes. There is the big cushioned ball inside on which your fingers rest. I tend to clench my fingers into a fist, too, and my fingers become numb. This support prevents that. It's a comfortable support, but it is "hot' wearing it at night during summer time as I sweat. I wear a support each night on both hands. I can now sleep through the whole night without waking to numb fingers. The reason you have to wear it at night is that its design prevents you from doing anything with your hands so if you want or need to do something, you have to remove the support.

What I found on this highly annoying issue is that the button is too small for my thumb. But the symptom should appear when trying to start too. The work around is to build up the button to make it easier to push. I've used trimmed rubber bumper pads, but I'm thinking a drop or two of some kind of glue might be better.

No it does not hurt my hands at all. It vibrates a little but nothing out of the ordinary.

You are still able to curl your fingers. There is a soft pad in the palm of the hand which would prevent you from making a tight fist.

I just checked, I didn't notice until you asked the question! Maybe a hair smaller, not like my fingers are cramped, but slightly closer together than my laptop that I'm typing on now....and I have thick fingers. But then again, I didn't even notice it until now to even have it be an issue.

I am careful when using something like this. I only use it on occasion. Yes, my hands feel the impact, if I exceed an occasional use. I think this is a product that is best avoided for those of us that have hand issues--or possibly if we are collecting social security because we qualify with our age. :O)

There are no fingerprints if you don't have any kind of residue on your hands like lotion or something like that. No, it doesn't change the responsiveness. Completely worth it, if you ask me.

I have zero issues with this, but perhaps it's because of my ninja-like stealthy hand movements....hahaha jk, not a ninja, and it works just fine for me! :-)

I have the same trouble - it remains quite stiff - so much for fingertip adjustment.

To KSumners...........I wish I could help you with that..............I did not recieve on with the beace I purchased........but I am thinking it might be a squeeze implement to use for your fingers..........closing the fingers around......opening, closing....a type of exercise ball?? to give some therapy:) wish I had gotten one..........!!

I have no problem closing my fist around the Griffin Grip. It fills in the gaps and makes my fist harder like a roll of quarters.

Well, it didn't really work for me because I had to stretch my thumb to make the buttons work. I was hoping it would help my wrist pain, but it made my thumb sore and fatigued from the stretching. I don't think it works well for small hands.

No problem here ... index finger on bottom, thumb, with slight pressure, on middle part ... move thumb ...

They are a bit tight. Takes a bit of work to get them on. But my main concern was healing my fingers, so the fact they didn't go all the way to my wrist or bottom of my palm didn't bother me at all.

The portion against your hand is not. The outer part might be - if it is it is a low grade leather. I have used it for 6 months now and no issues.

The button where you hold your thumb gets pretty hot. The button was ridiculously hard to keep engaged. I'm not sure if I just got a defective one, or if they're all like that. This one got hot enough to hurt.
